| This article is about an older version of DF. |
In Dwarf Fortress, gender is what determines if two creatures can produce offspring.
Determining Gender[edit]
When viewing a unit, a symbol appears below its name:
| Gender | Symbol | Common names | Other uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| Male | ♂ | Boar | Bags |
| Female | ♀ | Sow | Amulets |
Additionally, when viewing a unit from the u menu or with v-z, the creature will be referred to as "he" or "she".
Raws[edit]
In the raws, genders are defined in separate castes (not to be confused with casts). Castes are often just defined as "male" or "female", but there are a few notable exceptions.
